A method for the determination of Pt、Pd、Ru、Rh 、Ir and Au in geological samples was studied. The sample was fused by sodium pe roxide and determined by a double focusing high resolution inductively coupled p lasma mass spectrometer “ELEMENT” after the separation and enrichment by co-precipitation with Te. Detection limit of the method was between 1～9ng/g and the recovery was ＞90%. Our analytical results for some domestic or interna tional reference materials were in agreement with the certified values.

Objective To investigate whether the expression of sterile alpha motif and histidine/aspartic acid domain containing protein 1 ( SAMHD1 ) could be induced by IFN-α and mediated by microRNA-181a (miR-181a). Methods THP-1 and Jurkat cells were treated with different doses of IFN-α(200 IU/ml and 1 000 IU/ml) for 24 h. The expression of miR-181a and SAMHD1 at mRNA level were de-tected by quantitative PCR. Western blot assay was performed to measure the expression of SAMHD1 at pro-tein level. THP-1 and Jurkat cells were transfected with p-181a, an over-expression vector of miR-181a, and then treated with 200 IU/ml of IFN-α. Changes in the expression of SAMHD1 in those cells were analyzed. Results IFN-α significantly enhanced the expression of SAMHD1 at mRNA and protein levels, but inhibi-ted the expression of miR-181a, especially in Jurkat cells. The expression of SAMHD induced by IFN-αwas inhibited in cells over-expressing miR-181a. Conclusion This study suggests that IFN-α could induce the expression of SAMHD1 by down-regulating the level of miR-181a.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Pingyangmycin lipiodol emulsion (PLE) embolization for cavernous hemangioma of liver (CHL). Methods Seldinger technique was adopted and the catheter was super-selectively sent into the supplying artery of tumors in 18 CHL patients, 5-10 ml of Lidocaine and 5-20 ml of PLE were slowly injected. Before the embolization, 50-100 mg of pethidine was routinely injected. The embolization was conducted in several times in patients with large tumors, with multiple supplying arteries, and whose age was above 60 years. During the 3-48 months'follow-up after the operation,the change of the tumor diameter before and after the embolization was compared by using CT and ultrasound. The clinical symptomatic relief and the complications were also observed. Results The CHL of all the 18 cases were filled up by PLE. The foci were completely vanished in 9 cases, reduced by over 50% in 7 cases,and reduced by 25%-50% in 2 cases,respectively. The follow-up angiographic examination was performed in six cases, the tumor staining was completely vanished and the tumor-supplying artery was closed up. The improving rate of the clinical symtoms reached 89% . There were no serious complications. Conclusion The PLE embolization in hepatic cavernous hemangioma proves to be reliable, safe, minimally invasive, and with little side effect. This therapy, therefore, can be the first method of choice in treating the cavernous hemangioma of the liver.

Objective To investigate the interventional therapy and its value in the metal foreign matter in the stomach. Methods Eight patients with metal foreign matter in the stomach was studied. All patients were male, and their age ranged from 28 to 46 years with the mean age of 32.2 years. All patients had the medical history of swallowing metal foreign matter in compulsory detoxification or imprisonment. The catheter was inserted into the stomach lead by guide wire lubricated by paraffine. Then the guide wire was withdrawn and a 2.6 m long guide wire was folded in the middle and was inserted into the sromach through the catheter. A loop was made on the guide wire, and the loop was controlled to to hitch the forigen mater, then the guide wire was drawn out slowly . Results A total of 12 metal foreign matters in the stomach in all 8 patients were taken out safely, and no comqlications occurred. Conclusion The interventional therapy for the metal foreign matter in the stomach is simply, minimal invasive, cheap, effective, and with little complication. This therapy is a clinic treatment, the patient is glad to accept, and is the ideal therapy for foreign matter in the stomach.

Objective To investigate the effect of different HAART regimens on liver function,viral load and CD4+T cells of HIV infected children with HCV co-infection.Methods A total of 40 patients were divided into 4 groups:13 cases in AZT+3TC+NVP group(group A),16 cases in AZT+3TC+EFV group(group B),5 cases in D4T+3TC+EFV group(group C)and 6 cases in D4T+3TC+NVP group(group D).Liver function,viral load and CD4+T cells of patients in 4 groups were compared between before and after HAART.Results Eight patients(20％)had abnormal liver function before HAART treatment,and all of them had 1 level of liver damage.After receiving HAART,levels of ALT and AST were increased in group A and B(P<0.01);AST levels were increased in group C(P<0.01).CD4+T counts were all increased and HIV viral loads were decreased in 4 groups(P<0.01).There was no significant difference in RNA HCV load before and after HAART treatment(P>0.05).Conclusion Different HAART regimens can increase the liver damage in HIV infected children co-infected with HCV,but have little effect on the treatment efficiency of HAART regimens.

Objective To investigate the immunomodulatory effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their role in prolonging allograft survival in rat heart transplantation. Methods Inbred Wistar rats were used as donors, and Fisher 344 as recipients. MSC were isolated from femur and tibia bone marrow of donors and cultured in vitro. Mixed lymphocyte reaction assays were performed to assess the immunosuppressive effects of different concentrations of MSC on allogeneic T cell proliferation. Cardiac allograft model was established and according to different intervention measures recipients were divided into two groups (MSC treatment group and control group) (n=8 in each group). In MSC treatment group, recipients were infused with 2×106 MSC via the tail vein at designated intervals (one week before operation, during operation and consecutive three days postoperation), while in control group, the recipients were treated with Ringer's solution at the same interval& At day 5 posttransplantation real-time PCR was used to detect the changes in the expression of Thl and Th2 cytokine genes in transplanted hearts. Results In vitro allogeneic T cell response was greatly suppressed by MSC in a dose-dependent manner. Real-time PCR revealed that IL-1β,IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 were expressed in MSC treatment group, while IL-4 and IL-10 were not expressed in control group but with significantly higher expression of IL-1β and IFN-γ. As compared with control group, survival of MSC-treated allografts was markedly prolonged as compared with control group (mean survivaldays: 12.4±5.3 vs 6.4±2.0, P＜0.05). Conclusion Intravenous adrninistmtion of MSC can prolong the survival of transplanted heart possibly by induction of allograft tolerance through changing Th1/Th2 balance.

Objective To explore the curative effect on superselective uterine artery embolization for treatment of placenta inereta.Methods Pelvic arteriography was performed to confirm bleeding vessels.Then a 5 F Cobra catheter was inserted superselectively into uterine artery ipsilateral to bleeding,through which methotrexatum(MTX)and gelatin sponge were injected for embolization.After the procedure,bleeding,blood pressure,dischargement of placenta tissue,uterine recuperation,and plasma β-HCG were monitored.Results Bleeding vessels were confirmed in all of the 5 cases of placenta increta.Uterine artery embolization was successful at sole procedure.The operation time was 25.0 to 60.0 min.with the mean time (37.4±5.8)min.Vaginal bleeding stoped in 3.0 to 12.0 minutes after embolization and the mean time was(5.7±2.4)min.Blood pressure returned to normal after operation and vital signs were stable.Placenta tissue discharged on the 5th day to the 4th week after embolization and the mean time was 17 d.The uterus recuperated and blood β-HCG recovered simutaneously.The menstruation and ovulation during follow-up returned to normal.Conclusion Superseleetive uterine artery embolization for treatment of placenta increta has advantages such as short operation time,minimal invasion,definite curative effect and reservation of uterus,which is worthy in clinical application.

Objective To analyze the CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland, so as to improve the diagnostic accuracy of tuberculosis of parotid gland. Methods Nine cases with tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland confirmed by surgical pathology and acid-fast bacilli after preoperative spiral CT plain scan and two phases dynamic enhancement scan were retrospectively analyzed.Imaging findings of CT were reviewed and compared with surgical pathology. Results Seven of the 9 cases of tuberculosis of the parotid gland occurred in the left side, and 2 in the right side, and superficial lobe involvement occurred in 8 cases and deep lobe in 1 ease. The lesion was classified as tumour type (8 cases)and infiltration type (1 case). In tumour type, the number of lesion was from 1 to 4, and the size was from 2.7 to 5.3 cm in diameter. One case of infiltration type measured 3.4 cm in diameter. On CT plain scan,the lesions showed homogeneous slight high-density with regular edge in 5 cases and irregular low-density in 4 cases, and 2 of them with partly blurred edge. On CT enhanced scan, uniform moderate enhancement was seen in 3 cases, circular enhancement in 4 cases, inhomogeneous enhancement in 1 case, and lace-like enhancement in 1 case. Local infiltration occurred in 6 cases. Lymphadenovarix in the same side of lesion occurred in 2 cases. Conclusion CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland present diversification, which correlate well with pathological changes. Understanding of characteristic CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland is helpful for differential diagnosis, but final diagnosis still depends on pathology and acid-fast baeilli.
